Jerusalem is significantly increasing public transportation services to accommodate a large football match at Teddy Stadium on Monday. The enhanced system includes additional light rail trains, regular bus lines, and special shuttle services to ensure safe and orderly travel for tens of thousands of fans.
Fans arriving from outside Jerusalem can use intercity buses to the central bus station or Israel Railways to Yitzhak Navon station, then transfer to the L3 light rail line towards Malha, stopping at stations near the stadium. Local Jerusalem fans will have access to regular bus routes. From 4 PM to 8 PM, shuttle buses will operate from the "Park and Ride" lot at Mount Herzl, with a stop at Shaare Zedek Medical Center.
Private vehicle drivers will have free parking at the Ha'umot parking lot, with access to the L3 light rail line directly to the stadium area. Bus line 6A will also be reinforced to transport drivers from this lot to the stadium.
Following the match, a coordinated crowd dispersal plan with the Israel Police will guide fans to shuttle points, bus stops for line 6A to the central station, and the Gonenim light rail station. Several light rail trains will be on standby at Gonenim to depart for the Binyanei Ha'uma station.
Israel Railways will add a special train from Yitzhak Navon station to Gush Dan departing at midnight, while other services will run as scheduled. The Jerusalem Municipality, Ministry of Transportation, and local transport companies urge the public to follow directions from ushers and signage.
